56com Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data 56com collects, how we use it, who we share it with, and the rights you hold as a registered player on our Philippine gaming platform.
Privacy at a Glance
How 56com Protects Your Data
These six points summarize 56com's core privacy commitments. They are provided for quick reference only — the full legal text below governs your rights and our obligations.
Encrypted Data Storage
All personal data stored on 56com servers — including your name, identification documents, bank details, and GCash or PayMaya account references — is protected using industry-standard AES-256 encryption at rest. Sensitive data in transit is secured using TLS 1.2 or higher at all times.
We Never Sell Your Data
56com does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party advertisers or data brokers. Any sharing of your data with external partners — such as payment processors or identity verification providers — is strictly limited to what is necessary for delivering and securing your account services.
Philippine Data Privacy Act Compliance
56com's data practices are designed to comply with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its Implementing Rules and Regulations. We uphold the rights of Filipino players including the right to access, correct, and request deletion of personal data we hold about them.
Transparent Cookie Use
56com uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve your browsing experience, maintain session security, and analyze platform usage. You can manage your cookie preferences at any time through your browser settings. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles for external marketing networks.
You Control Marketing Communications
56com will only send promotional emails, SMS messages, or Viber/Messenger notifications to players who have opted in to receive them. You can withdraw your marketing consent at any time by updating your communication preferences in your account settings or by contacting [email protected]. Opting out of marketing does not affect transactional or security notifications.
KYC Data Handled Responsibly
Identity documents submitted during the KYC verification process — such as your PhilSys ID, passport, or driver's license — are used solely for age verification, identity confirmation, and regulatory compliance. These documents are stored securely and are not shared with any party beyond those required for verification and legal compliance purposes.
01 Introduction
56com ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of every player who registers and plays on our platform at 56com.pro. This Privacy Policy has been prepared in accordance with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its Implementing Rules and Regulations, together with applicable guidelines issued by the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines.
This Privacy Policy describes in clear terms what personal data we collect from you when you use the 56com platform, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, with whom we may share it, and what rights you have in relation to that data. It applies to all players registered with 56com, as well as to visitors who browse the 56com.pro website without a registered account.
This Privacy Policy should be read alongside the 56com Terms & Conditions, which together govern your relationship with the platform. In the event of any conflict between this Privacy Policy and the Terms & Conditions on a privacy-related matter, this Privacy Policy shall prevail.
02 Personal Data We Collect
56com collects personal data through several means, including data you provide directly during registration, data generated automatically through your use of the platform, and data received from third-party verification and payment partners. The following table summarizes the main categories of personal data we collect and how each category is gathered:
| Data Category | Examples | How Collected |
|---|---|---|
| Identity Data | Full legal name, date of birth, nationality, government ID number | Provided by you during registration and KYC verification |
| Contact Data | Email address, Philippine mobile number, home address | Provided by you during registration or account updates |
| Financial Data | GCash number, PayMaya account, BDO/BPI/Metrobank account references, transaction history | Provided by you when making deposits or requesting withdrawals |
| KYC Documents | Scanned or photographed government ID, selfie with ID, proof of address | Uploaded by you during the KYC verification process |
| Technical Data | IP address, device type, browser type and version, operating system, session tokens | Collected automatically when you access the platform |
| Usage Data | Pages visited, games played, bet history, login timestamps, session duration | Collected automatically through platform analytics systems |
| Communication Data | Live chat transcripts, email correspondence, support ticket content | Generated when you contact 56com support |
| Marketing Preferences | Opt-in/opt-out status for email, SMS, Viber, and Messenger communications | Recorded when you update your communication preferences |
2.1 Data You Are Not Required to Provide
Certain data fields in your 56com profile are optional. Providing optional data may enhance your experience — for example, specifying your preferred sports or game categories may result in more relevant promotional offers — but declining to provide optional data will not prevent you from accessing any core platform features.
2.2 Data from Third Parties
56com may receive personal data about you from third-party identity verification providers, payment processors, and fraud detection services engaged to support the secure operation of the platform. Where we receive data from third parties, we ensure that the third party had a lawful basis for sharing that data with us and that such sharing is consistent with this Privacy Policy.
03 How We Use Your Personal Data
56com uses the personal data we collect for the following purposes, each of which is supported by a lawful basis described in Section 04 below:
- Account Creation and Management: To register your 56com account, verify your identity and age (21+), maintain your player profile, and process your login sessions securely.
- Payment Processing: To process deposits and withdrawals via GCash, PayMaya, BDO, BPI, Metrobank, and other supported Philippine payment channels, and to maintain accurate financial records of all transactions.
- KYC and Regulatory Compliance: To verify your identity and age in compliance with Philippine gaming regulations, anti-money laundering legislation, and the applicable requirements of the PAGCOR regulatory framework.
- Platform Security and Fraud Prevention: To detect and prevent unauthorized access to your account, identify suspicious activity, investigate potential fraud, and protect the integrity of the 56com platform.
- Customer Support: To respond to your queries, resolve disputes, process complaints, and maintain records of communications for quality assurance and regulatory purposes.
- Responsible Gaming: To monitor player activity for signs of problem gambling, enforce self-exclusion and cooling-off periods, and support the 56com responsible gaming program in accordance with applicable Philippine guidelines.
- Personalization and Platform Improvement: To customize your gaming experience based on your preferences and usage history, and to analyze platform performance data to improve our services.
- Marketing Communications: To send promotional offers, bonus notifications, and platform updates to players who have opted in to receive such communications, in compliance with applicable Philippine law.
- Legal and Regulatory Obligations: To comply with court orders, regulatory investigations, law enforcement requests, and any other applicable legal obligations under Philippine law.
04 Legal Basis for Processing
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, 56com must have a lawful basis for processing your personal data. The legal bases on which 56com relies are as follows:
4.1 Contractual Necessity
Processing your identity, contact, and financial data is necessary for 56com to perform the contract represented by the Terms & Conditions — that is, to provide you with access to the platform, process your bets and transactions, and maintain your player account. Without this processing, 56com cannot deliver its services to you.
4.2 Legal Obligation
Processing your KYC documents and transaction records is required for 56com to comply with Philippine anti-money laundering legislation, gaming regulatory requirements, and any lawful orders from Philippine courts or regulatory bodies including the National Privacy Commission.
4.3 Legitimate Interests
Processing your technical and usage data for fraud detection, platform security, and responsible gaming monitoring is necessary for the legitimate interests of 56com and its players. We have assessed that these interests are not overridden by your privacy rights.
4.4 Consent
Where 56com relies on your consent as the lawful basis — for example, to send you marketing communications or to use non-essential cookies — you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal.
05 Data Sharing and Disclosure
56com does not sell or trade your personal data. We may share your personal data with the following categories of third parties strictly as necessary and in accordance with this Privacy Policy:
5.1 Identity Verification Providers
To complete the KYC process, 56com works with licensed identity verification service providers who receive copies of the identification documents you submit. These providers process your data under strict contractual obligations and are prohibited from using your data for any purpose beyond the verification services they provide to 56com.
5.2 Payment Processors
When you make a deposit or request a withdrawal, your financial data is shared with the relevant payment processor — such as the GCash or PayMaya platform, or your BDO, BPI, or Metrobank banking institution — to the extent necessary to complete the transaction. These entities have independent data privacy obligations under Philippine law.
5.3 Regulatory and Law Enforcement Authorities
56com may be required to disclose your personal data to Philippine regulatory bodies, law enforcement agencies, or courts where we are under a legal obligation to do so. This includes compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) reporting requirements and responses to lawful requests from the National Privacy Commission.
5.4 Fraud Detection and Security Partners
To protect the platform and its players, 56com may share technical and usage data with cybersecurity and fraud detection partners. Data shared for these purposes is anonymized or pseudonymized wherever possible and is subject to strict data processing agreements.
5.5 Professional Advisers
56com may share personal data with legal counsel, auditors, or other professional advisers where necessary to obtain professional advice or in connection with regulatory proceedings, subject to strict confidentiality obligations.
06 Cookies and Tracking Technologies
56com uses cookies and similar tracking technologies (including local storage, session storage, and pixel tags) on the 56com.pro platform. These technologies help us deliver a functional, secure, and personalized experience to our players.
6.1 Types of Cookies We Use

| Strictly Necessary | Maintain your login session, prevent CSRF attacks, enable core platform functionality | Yes — cannot be disabled |
| Functional | Remember your language preferences, game display settings, and notification choices | Optional |

6.2 Managing Cookies
You can manage or delete non-essential cookies through your browser settings at any time. Please note that disabling functional or analytics cookies may affect your experience on the 56com platform. Strictly necessary and security cookies cannot be disabled as they are essential to the safe and proper functioning of the service.
07 Data Retention
56com retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable Philippine law. The following retention periods apply as a general guideline:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Account and Identity Data | Duration of account + 5 years after closure | Regulatory and AML compliance obligations |
| KYC Documents | Duration of account + 5 years after closure | Philippine gaming regulatory requirements |
| Financial Transaction Records | 10 years from transaction date | AMLC reporting and tax record-keeping obligations |
| Customer Support Records | 3 years from last interaction | Dispute resolution and quality assurance |
| Technical and Usage Data | 13 months from collection | Platform analytics and security monitoring |
| Marketing Consent Records | Until withdrawal of consent + 3 years | Evidence of lawful marketing basis |
After the applicable retention period expires, your personal data will be securely deleted or irreversibly anonymized so that it can no longer be associated with you. Where data is anonymized rather than deleted, the resulting anonymized data may be retained indefinitely for statistical or analytical purposes.
